blueberries
Last week, before they left, we took my family (visiting) blueberry picking for the first time. They loved the experience (and ate lots of blueberries while there!) Did you see how many we picked? It is so nice to have so many hands (including my lovely mama's seen above) to help!
La semana pasada, antes de que se fuera mi familia que me visitaba, los lleve a recoger arándanos por primera vez. Les encanto la experiencia y ¡como comieron arándanos! ¿Vieron cuantos recogimos? Es padre tener tantas manos (incluyendo las de mi mama preciosa, vista arriba) para ayudar.
Since, we've made- blueberry jam, blueberry muffins, blueberry cobbler (recipe from The Pioneer Woman Cooks cookbook), and blueberry pancakes. We froze about 1/2 a dozen bags and have eaten even more. And this doesn't even include all the ones my family took back with them.
Desde entonces hemos preparado mermelada de arándanos, bollitos de arándanos, un cobbler de arándanos (receta del libro The Pioneer Woman Cooks), y pancakes de arándanos. También congelamos como 1/2 docena de bolsas de arándanos, y esto no incluye todos los que nos hemos comido, ni los que se llevaron mi familia.
Oh yes! Blueberry season is here and we have been enjoying every bit of it.
Definitivamente ya esta aquí la temporada de arándanos y la estamos ¡disfrutando muchísimo!
And in case you are wondering how my little blueberry bush in our garden is doing:
Y si de casualidad tienes curiosidad de como esta mi arbolito de arándanos:
Not too good. Hasn't grown much (at all!) in the last couple of years. We plan to transfer it to a new place during the fall and get two new little friends to join him- in hopes of growing more blueberries of our own. Wish us luck.
Nada bien. El pobre no ha crecido en los últimos par de años. Planeamos cambiarlo a un lugar nuevo este otoño, y le traeremos otro dos arbolitos para que lo acompañen, a ver si así crece mas y nos da mas de un arándano. Deséanos suerte.
What have you been enjoying lately?
